First stab at operator overloading

When no built-in interpretation is found for one of the operators
mentioned below, the typechecker will try to turn it into a method
call with the name written next to it. For binary operators, the
method will be called on the LHS with the RHS as only parameter.

Binary:

    +   op_add
    -   op_sub
    *   op_mul
    /   op_div
    %   op_rem
    &   op_and
    |   op_or
    ^   op_xor
    <<  op_shift_left
    >>  op_shift_right
    >>> op_ashift_right

Unary:

    -   op_neg
    !   op_not

Overloading of the indexing ([]) operator isn't finished yet.
